Dear All,

I have a simple problem in doing modprobe of ndiswrapper in case of driver of  Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection [8086:4222] card. The steps which I mentioned is as follows. Please help me if I am missing something. Sorry, this is specific about ndiswrapper, but can anybody tell me the complete flow of modprobe so that I can get some clue.


1.
I am using  2.6.19 kernel with 16 kb stack size and smp disable.  I have also enabled the wireless option  &  done blacklisting  of  iwl3945  driver  ( because I  want to test it  with windows driver via  ndiswrapper.)
[root@fedora7 ndiswrapper-1.55]# uname -a
Linux fedora7 2.6.19 #2 Sun Aug 9 05:03:23 IST 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@fedora7 ndiswrapper-1.55]#
Scanning for PCI Cards...
Found - Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection [8086:4222]



2.
I am using ICS_Dx32.zip windows driver for testing purpose of my device.

[root@fedora7 x32]# pwd

[root@fedora7 x32]#
[root@fedora7 x32]#
[root@fedora7 x32]# ls

[root@fedora7 x32]#
[root@fedora7 x32]#
[root@fedora7 x32]# ndiswrapper -l
netw5x32 : driver installed
      device (8086:4222) present
w29n51 : driver installed
[root@fedora7 x32]#

3. Till this everything is fine. But when we do modprobe ndiswrapper , the dmesg shows following error message.


ndiswrapper version 1.55 loaded (smp=no, preempt=no)

ndiswrapper (load_wrap_driver:108): couldn't load driver netw5x32; check system log for messages from 'loadndisdriver'
usbcore: registered new interface driver ndiswrapper
[root@fedora7 x32]#

Can anybody help me, why I am not able to insert the module by modprobe. Please help as I am very much tired by this error message.
